Description:
Chuantong Tieguanyin means traditional Tieguanyin and is a genuine, original classic Tieguanyin, produced on Mount Bijiashan, in the south west of the city of Anxi.

This tea has been produced traditionally, and contrary to modern Tieguanyin it has been wilted for a longer period, oxidised at room temperature, and the red rims of the leaves that result from the oxidation (Hongbian) have not been removed. Then the tea has been shaped into semi-lumps (Ban Qiu Xing) and moderately roasted. Replaces Tan Bei Tie Guan Yin.

This tea is an attempt to approximate the Anxi Tieguanyin before they were made very green.

The tea plant variety Tieguanyin is named after Guanyin (in India: Avalokiteshvara), hence in the west this tea is sometimes also called Iron Buddha of compassion, as the name would be translated.
Character:
A tea that is very intense and lingers long after being drunk, a tea for a hot summers day, lush, fruity, herbal and aromatic, warm and full.
Category:
An Xi Tie Guan Yin
Storage:

Description:

This means that it has been wilted for a longer time, oxidised at room temperature and the oxidised rims of the leaves (Hongbian) have not been removed. Then the tea has been shaped into semi-lumps (Ban Qiu Xing) and only very slightly roasted.

Description:
Laoguanyin translates as old Tieguanyin and in this case it means that the Teaguanyin has been produced as it was in the old times, before the leaves were shaped into lumps. This tea was produced at Mount Bijiashan, in the south west of the City Anxi.

This tea has been produced traditionally, and contrary to modern Tieguanyin it has been wilted for a longer period, oxidised at room temperature, and the red rims of the leaves that result from the oxidation have not been removed. Then the tea was formed in a slightly twisted leaf and medium roasted - the appearance reminds of Wuyi Rock Tea, which is why it is also called Guan Yin Pao in reference to Dahongpao.

The varietal Tieguanyin is named after Guanyin (in India: Avalokiteshvara), hence in the west this tea is sometimes also called Iron Buddha of compassion, as the name would translate.
Character:
The introduces itself with a subtle smell of wood and sweet dried fruits, followed by a highly aromatic sip, which then transforms from mineral and slightly tart to light sweet notes.
